This document discusses different types of contracts for agile software development projects. It begins by explaining the triple constraint of time, cost and scope for projects. Fixed price contracts fix two of these (usually time and cost), but can incentivize cutting scope. Cost reimbursable and time and material contracts are flexible but provide less incentive for efficiency. Progressive, target cost and profit sharing contracts share risks and rewards between customers and suppliers to better support agile principles of collaboration and adapting to change.

Fixed Price vs Fixed Budget
On the surface a fixed price project and a fixed budget project might seem the same, but they definitely are not! A Fixed Price Project the client and the consultant agree upon a fixed set of features at a fixed price. A Fixed Budget Project, the project expense will not exceed an agreed upon amount. Features will be prioritized and will be addressed until the budget is exhausted or the project is finished (whichever comes first). Both have a "not to exceed" budget, but that's where the similarities end.

Agile contracts
The document discusses challenges with using traditional fixed-price contracts for agile software development projects. It suggests that such contracts are "doomed from the start" because they emphasize fixed plans, schedules and costs, which does not align with the core values of agile development that prioritize responding to change over following a plan. The document recommends using rolling contracts that have short durations, capped pricing and variable scopes to build trust and allow for flexibility through early and continuous delivery of working software.
trackwise
The document provides feedback from a BRM on a project for a QPM TWS team. The feedback includes:
1) The customer is happy with the quality and timing of deliverables from the offshore team.
2) The project requires support revamp and a mitigation plan has been shared with the customer.
3) The customer is happy with the overall performance of the team.
4) Good performance on this project will be critical to winning new engagements and additional requirements in the future.
5) There is regular communication between the onsite and offshore teams.

Agencyvaquent case study
This financial services client was spending over $1 million per year using 22 advertising agencies for direct marketing projects. The agencies' work was slow, inconsistent, and costly. Aquent evaluated the client's processes and recommended a hybrid model using 1-2 agencies for concepts and Aquent contractors for execution. This reduced costs 50-75% and the number of agencies from 22 to 2, saving over $1 million in the first year and $2.5 million by the end of the second year. The client gained control over their brand and faster, higher quality project delivery.
Contracts and types (habib)
The document discusses three main types of project contracts: fixed price contracts, cost reimbursable contracts, and time and material contracts. Fixed price contracts assign all risk to the seller and have a clearly defined scope. Cost reimbursable contracts reimburse the seller for all incurred costs plus an additional fee or incentive. Time and material contracts set hourly or unit prices and are commonly used for outsourcing work.

Contract Negotiations
The document discusses strategies for negotiating outsourcing contracts, including defining objectives, risks, costs, and terms. It recommends listing priorities, knowing constraints, and assessing liabilities before negotiations. The document also describes types of contracts like fixed price, time and materials, and gain/pain share agreements and potential advantages and disadvantages of each.
Agile contracts
The document discusses contract management for agile projects. It begins by noting that using traditional contracts for agile development can cause issues, as agile involves changing requirements throughout the project rather than defining all requirements up front. It then examines various agile contract models, including time and materials, fixed price per iteration, and variable price variable scope progressive contracts. It concludes that the major attributes of agile contracts are similar to traditional contracts but the content and legal approach must account for agile principles like collaboration, learning, and responding to change over following a rigid plan.
Working With Agile Suppliers Toby Mckenzie
This document discusses challenges with traditional fixed price and time & materials contracting approaches for outsourced projects and proposes an alternative approach called feature point pricing. Feature point pricing involves agreeing on a price per unit of work, jointly estimating work in units, delivering completed units at the end of each iteration, and only paying for accepted units. This aligns incentives between the customer and supplier and allows for flexibility and collaboration similar to agile methodologies. Key benefits include only paying for working software, customer control over budget and prioritization, and embracing change. Open communication and fair allocation of risk are also important principles.
Types of contract in Project management
The document discusses different types of contracts that may be used in project management. It describes fixed price/lump sum contracts where a specific deliverable is agreed to for a set price, carrying more risk for the seller. Cost-reimbursable contracts reimburse the seller for all allowable costs and come in forms like cost plus fee or cost plus fixed fee. Time and materials contracts bill the buyer based on hours worked and materials used by the seller.

Here are the calculations for the questions:
Q1) Target Cost (TC) = $200,000
Target Fee (TF) = $50,000
Sharing Ratio (SR) = 60/40 = Buyer Share Ratio (BSR) = 60%, Seller Share Ratio (SSR) = 40% = 0.4
Actual Cost (AC) = $220,000
{(TC - AC) x SSR} + TF = {($200,000 - $220,000) x 0.4} + $50,000 = -$8,000 + $50,000 = $42,000
Final Price (FP) = AC + Actual Fee (AF) =

Energy procurement involves more than just finding the lowest cost supplier. It requires determining an optimal supply strategy to meet client needs, assessing risk, sustainability, and providing ongoing account management for long-term success. While obtaining the best value supplier is important, ongoing management of the client portfolio and market is also needed to protect clients from hidden fees and ensure the lowest overall costs.
Project contracts
This document discusses different types of contracts used to establish business agreements. It describes fixed price contracts where a service provider agrees to complete a defined service for a set price. Unit price contracts divide projects into units that are bid separately. Cost plus contracts reimburse service providers for costs plus an agreed fee. Incentive contracts share risks between parties for uncertain projects. Retainer contracts price time and materials for long-term engagements. Percentage of construction fee contracts pay service providers a percentage of estimated construction costs. The document recommends choosing contracts with minimum risk, like fixed price for predictable short-term projects and retainer or cost plus for exploratory ones.
Common contract types
This document discusses and compares various common contract types including fixed-price contracts like firm fixed price (FFP) and fixed price incentive fee (FPIF) contracts which set a fixed total price upfront and carry more risk for sellers. Cost-reimbursable contracts like cost plus fixed fee (CPFF) and cost plus incentive fee (CPIF) cover sellers' costs plus a fee and carry more risk for buyers. Time and materials (T&M) contracts are a hybrid that pay hourly rates and material costs. Each type allocates risk differently between buyers and sellers.
The Project Management Process - Week 10 Global Issues in IT projects
The document discusses concepts related to global project management. It covers topics like project partnering, types of contracts, international projects, environmental factors, cultural dimensions, and working with partners. The key points are that partnering transforms adversarial relationships into collaborative teams, different types of contracts allocate risk differently, managing global projects requires considering various cultural and environmental factors, and selecting the right partners and celebrating successes are important for partnership success.
CONTRACTS AND ITS TYPES
There are several types of construction contracts. Price-based contracts include lump sum contracts, where the contractor is paid a fixed price for the entire project, and unit price contracts, where payment is made based on rates for individual work units. Cost-based contracts include cost plus contracts, where the contractor is reimbursed for costs plus a fee or percentage, and guaranteed maximum price contracts, where the owner's liability is capped but the contractor can retain savings if the project costs less than estimated. The appropriate contract type depends on factors like project scope definition and risk allocation between owner and contractor.
Agile contracts
Deepti conducted a workshop in ScrumDay2017, Bangalore that started with reflecting on existing contracting systems and their evil effects on Agile culture, Agile mindset. Then focused on from where we started on our Agile journey, what Agile philosophy says about working with customer, and how we fail to achieve it if we go by traditional contracts. Followed by creating our own Agile Contracts which will be based on very famous “Statement of Target outcome – SOTO” approach.

1. Services make up a large and growing portion of the economies and labor forces of many nations.
2. Marketing services poses unique challenges compared to goods, as services have different characteristics. This has led to the emergence of a new paradigm recognizing services as distinct from goods.
3. Outsourcing services has boomed as many business functions are contracted out. Information technology and software services are among the most commonly outsourced.
Contract Types + EVMS
The document discusses different types of government contracts, including fixed price, cost type, and flexibly priced contracts. It explains key aspects of each contract type such as risk allocation, payment methods, and fee structures. The document also provides an overview of Earned Value Management (EVMS), describing it as a method to correlate cost and schedule performance by tracking budgeted, earned, and actual costs over the life of a contract.

Here are the steps to solve this CPIF contract question:
* Target cost was estimated at AED 210,000
* Target fee was AED 25,000
* Actual cost incurred was AED 200,000
* Since actual cost was lower than target cost, there is a saving to share (210,000 - 200,000 = 10,000)
* Sharing ratio is 80% to buyer and 20% to seller
* Seller's share of savings is 20% of 10,000 = AED 2,000
* Final fee = Target fee + Seller's share of savings = AED 25,000 + AED 2,000 = AED 27,000
* Final price =

Procurement in the age of Agile: Enlightened Agile Teams and Heathen Vendors
While Agile Software development thrives on small, co-located and dedicated teams, it is often challenging when features or capabilities end up outsourced to a third party provider. Can Agile truly work when part of the team is contracted? What options are there to facilitate success for everyone involved?
Contract and Job costing
This document discusses different types of costing methods including job costing and contract costing. It provides details on:
- Job costing is used to determine costs for specific jobs or orders and is commonly used in job order industries. Costs are tracked separately for each job.
- Contract costing is a variant of job costing applied to construction projects. Each contract is treated as a separate cost unit and costs are tracked separately for each contract over its duration.
- Key aspects of contract costing include maintaining separate accounts for each contract, charging costs incurred directly to the relevant contract, and payment being made based on certified work completed.
How much will this cost?
This document discusses various contract models for software development projects, including time and materials, outcome-based, fixed cost, fixed scope, and fixed time and scope contracts. It provides examples of each contract type and discusses how to plan, estimate, deliver, and measure when using different contract models. The key message is that different contract types provide different levels of predictability for cost and schedule while balancing flexibility, and that customer collaboration is more important than contracts alone.

Superpower Your Apache Kafka Applications Development with Complementary Open...
Kafka Summit talk (Bangalore, India, May 2, 2024, https://events.bizzabo.com/573863/agenda/session/1300469 )
Many Apache Kafka use cases take advantage of Kafka’s ability to integrate multiple heterogeneous systems for stream processing and real-time machine learning scenarios. But Kafka also exists in a rich ecosystem of related but complementary stream processing technologies and tools, particularly from the open-source community. In this talk, we’ll take you on a tour of a selection of complementary tools that can make Kafka even more powerful. We’ll focus on tools for stream processing and querying, streaming machine learning, stream visibility and observation, stream meta-data, stream visualisation, stream development including testing and the use of Generative AI and LLMs, and stream performance and scalability. By the end you will have a good idea of the types of Kafka “superhero” tools that exist, which are my favourites (and what superpowers they have), and how they combine to save your Kafka applications development universe from swamploads of data stagnation monsters!

Agile contracts
- 2. Contract What is a Contract? Do we Really Need it?
- 3. Real Life Contracts Mangalyam tantunanena mama jeevana hetuna: kanthe badhnami subhage twam jeeva saradam satam “O my bride, the source of all my spiritual riches, I tie this auspicious thread around your throat, which (shall be) the foundation and source of my life (hence forth). I bless that you may live for hundred years. (And by this, I am blessed too as I pledge to be your partner in life)”
- 4. Agile Manifesto Customer Collaboration over contract negotiation
- 5. Triple Constraint Projects must be delivered within cost Projects must be delivered on time Projects must meet the agreed scope Projects must also meet customer quality requirements
- 6. Agile Principles Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer through early and continuous delivery of valuable software Deliver working software frequently, from a couple of weeks to a couple of months, with a preference to the shorter timescale
- 7. Fixed Price Contracts FPFS :Time and Cost are Fixed(Sometimes Scope also) All the scopes are defined initially Extra payment for the changes Disadvantages Sellers may try to cut the scope to deliver the projects on time and within budget Quality is not guaranteed for the customer Risk to the Seller
- 8. Fixed Price Contracts Fixed Price Incentive Fee (FPIF) If project ends sooner, an additional amount is paid to the seller Fixed Price Award Fee (FPAF) If performance exceeds the expectations, an additional amount is rewarded to the seller Fixed Price Economic Price Adjustment (FPEPA) The fixed price can be re-determined depending on the market pricing rate
- 9. Fixed Price Contracts Fixed Price per Iteration Requirements defined and agreed-on before the iteration Highly flexible or no predefined requirements Supplier has to give the clear estimates Scope changes is a risk Transparency, frequent deliveries can win customers confidence Fixed Price per unit of work Feature Points, Story points This approach is not quite common
- 10. Cost Reimbursable Contracts Suitable for the projects without clear scope Payment as per the agreed time frame This model is rarely adapted Disadvantages Payment to be done as per the agreed timeline Supplier can raise unlimited amount Always beneficial for the supplier
- 11. Cost Reimbursable Contracts Cost Plus Fee (CPF) Agreed total cost for the seller plus a percentage of fee over cost Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) Agreed fixed amount (for supplier) Cost incurred on the project is reimbursed on top of this Cost Plus Incentive Fee (CPIF) A performance-based extra amount will be paid
- 12. Time and Material Scope not detailed initially Cost based on Hourly/Man Days Anytime Scope changes Customer decides the End date of the contracts
- 13. Progressive Contracts Variable Price Variable Scope Progressive Contracts Flexible contracts Suitable for Agile projects Define the cost per iteration but not scope Termination can occur at any time Based on the relationship, the projects can continue indefinitely
- 14. Target Cost Contracts Share a % of profit of the target cost Supplier to bear the overrun cost if not met the expectation Target cost is clearly communicated Target cost can be set for the entire project or for the particular unit Client needs to have a clear knowledge to accurately measure the target cost
- 15. Profit Sharing Contracts Share an agreed % of benefits of the profit Motivates the supplier ODC based Contracts
